The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is meritorious in contemporary times, and the benefits are in the future
The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is meritorious in contemporary times, and the benefits are in the future. It is hoped that we will continue to adhere to the principle of saving water before transferring water, controlling pollution before opening water, and environmental protection before using water, strengthen operation and management, deepen water quality protection, pay close attention to water conservation, ensure the development of migrants, and do a good job in follow-up project planning, so that it can continue to benefit the nation and the people.
——In December 2014, Xi Jinping gave important instructions on the official opening of the first phase of the middle line of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project
Water is the foundation of survival and the source of civilization. Since ancient times, China's basic water situation has been summer flood and winter dry, lack of north and south abundance, and the spatial and temporal distribution of water resources is extremely uneven. After the founding of New China, our party led the construction of large-scale water conservancy projects. Since the 400th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee has made overall plans to promote the prevention and control of water disasters, the conservation of water resources, the protection and restoration of water ecology, and the governance of the water environment, and has completed a number of major water diversion projects across river basins and regions. The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is the backbone project for the allocation of water resources across river basins and regions. Since the completion of the first phase of the main project of the eastern and central routes of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, more than 1 billion cubic meters of water have been transferred in total, directly benefiting 2 million people, and playing an important role in economic and social development and ecological environmental protection. Practice has proved that the Party Central Committee's decision on the South-to-North Water Diversion Project is completely correct.

Actively carry out education on national and water conditions, and accelerate the green transformation of production and lifestyle
It is necessary to rely on large-scale water conservancy hub facilities and the Jiangdu Water Conservancy Hub Exhibition Hall to actively carry out education on national conditions and water conditions, guide cadres and masses, especially young people, to enhance their ideological awareness and consciousness of action in saving water resources and protecting water ecology, and accelerate the green transformation of production and lifestyle.
——Xi Jinping's speech during his inspection tour in Jiangsu in November 2020
Now with the improvement of living standards, turning on the faucet is a loud water, and in some western regions it is also the same, people's awareness of water conservation has slowly faded. Water security is a basic issue for survival, and we must attach great importance to water security risks, and we must not feel that the water crisis is still far away. If the thinking on water use does not change, and the whole society is not vigorously promoted to save water, no amount of water will be enough.
——On October 2021, 10, Xi Jinping's speech at the symposium on in-depth promotion of ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin
It is necessary to resolutely implement the use of water to determine the city, the land, the people, and the production by water, and take the road of intensive conservation and development of water safety and effective guarantee, efficient use of water resources, and obvious improvement of water ecology. It is necessary to make careful calculations and make good use of water resources, and manage water resources strictly and meticulously. It is necessary to innovate trading measures such as water rights and pollution discharge rights, make good use of fiscal and tax levers, give play to the role of the price mechanism, and force the improvement of water-saving effects.
